Sometimes it’s hard to resist those crunchy, crispy, zesty, flavor-packed chips. Well, resist no more… that is if you make these delicious baked veggie chips! They’re colorful, good for you, and have the crunchiness you crave along with tasty seasonings.

From kale to beets to sweet potatoes, these are super easy to make and so colorful displayed on a plate for all to enjoy! You’ll feel better about your nibbling since these baked goodies aren’t fried or drenched in oils.

Check out some of the benefits of adding these delicious veggies to your diet, according to Andrew Weil, MD:

Kale – Kale is among the most nutrient-dense foods in common use, and is an especially rich source of vitamins K, A and C. Kale is a very good source of calcium and is a member of the cancer-protective family of cruciferous vegetables.

Beets – The color in beets comes from anthocyanins, phytochemicals that protect against carcinogens and may help prevent heart disease. Beets are also a good source of fiber and are low in calories.

Gently toss the kale pieces with the olive oil and put them on a baking sheet, and then sprinkle them with salt.

Bake for about 10 minutes, turn them over and bake for another 10 minutes until crisp.

TIP: Keep a close eye on the chips, as they become thin and may burn. Give these a try with different types of salt. You can even try adding other ingredients: After baking the first 10 minutes and flipping, sprinkle on grated Parmesan cheese and finish baking. You could even try ground up pumpkin seeds or almonds.
